Howard Hughes ‘Vital Signs’ virtual tour of cardiovascular disease

Posted by: James Greenwood in PE, Presentations, Science, VLE, Web 2.0, Website, webtools

PE Science VS Welcome to HHMI’s virtual exhibit, Vital Signs: Understanding Cardiovascular Diseases. It has been adapted from the museum-quality exhibit that complemented our 1998 Holiday Lectures on Science series. Each year HHMI hosts a 2-day lecture event for high school students at its headquarters in Chevy Chase, Maryland. Drs. Richard P. Lifton and Christine E. Seidman, both HHMI investigators exploring the genetic basis of disease, delivered the 1998 lectures, “Of Hearts and Hypertension: Blazing Genetic Trails.” We hope you will find the experience of this virtual exhibit to be rich and compelling and that it will serve as a valuable resource to you for science research projects or as a source of background information about cardiovascular disease.

      The Government’s drive to ‘get rid of bad teachers’ is an interesting challenge. We can invest heavily in learning technologies, assessment systems, learning platforms and teaching assistants to name just a few, but without a good teacher to motivate and guide the students through their learning pathway, they are unlikely to excel. A poor teacher [...] […]
